Complete Culling Requests Picking Up Gold Pouches Opening Treasure Chests Sell Items You No Longer Need Examining Bodies of Dead Enemies Complete Main and Side Quests Deliver the Jadeite Orb to Everard Collect Items at the Griffin's Nest

Complete Culling Requests

Culling Requests automatically occur when you run into an NPC who is under attack by mobs of enemies. Helping the NPC out by defeating all monsters in the vicinity will reward you with gold.

Picking Up Gold Pouches

While exploring the world, you'll come across Gold Pouches on the ground. They'll appear in the form of a tiny bag with pieces of gold shimmering inside them. Picking these up will bank you in a decent amount of gold.

With the Opulence Augment equipped, you can get an increased amount of gold from pouches. This augment is unlocked once you reach Rank 4 of the Mystic Spearhand Vocation

Opening Treasure Chests

Opening treasure chests will usually yield a fair amount of gold. They are commonly found while exploring various locations and POIs around the map.

You may find them inside houses and towers, or along rough terrain such as rocky slopes and ledges, and even unreachable places that only Mages can reach using Levitate.

There are also times when a Pawn will spot a hidden area that may contain a treasure chest. Keep an eye out for Exclamation Marks on your mini-map as these will lead you to them!

Sell Items You No Longer Need

Selling items that no longer have any use or purpose to you will earn you some gold. You can sell your items by talking to a merchant at any store in any major town.

Weapons and Armor are usually priced at a higher value, so be sure to sell equipment that you'll no longer wear to get a large sum of profit in return.

List of All Items

Examining Bodies of Dead Enemies

Defeating enemies and then examining their dead bodies will sometimes net you a fair bit of gold.

The amount of gold you will get from them won't be that much, but due to the abundance of monsters in this game, you'll be able to farm a lot of gold fast if you make it a habit of always looting their corpses.

Enemies will also drop materials, which can be sold to merchants for additional profit.

Complete Main and Side Quests

Doing quests are one of the fastest ways to farm gold in Dragon's Dogma 2, as completing them will often reward you a generous amount of gold.

Take note that some quests are affected by passage of time and will progress or resolve even without the involvement of the player. Try to only accept quests that you know that you'll be able to finish in order to avoid having undesirable results in your playthrough.

Deliver the Jadeite Orb to Everard

During the Hunt for the Jadeite Orb quest, if you decide to give the Jadeite Orb to Everard, you will be rewarded 15,000 gold after finishing the quest.

At first you'll only receive 12,000 gold after making the delivery to Everard, but the next step instructs you to give a fake orb to Offulve, which is where you will get the additional 3,000 gold from him for your troubles.

The Griffin's Nest at the Misty Marshes has some neat items that you can collect such as gold pouches containing about 2,000 gold each, as well as materials like an Onyx and Tiger's Eye that you can sell at shops for decent profit. You can even get a Portcrystal and a Ferrystone in this spot.

Just be careful of the Griffin nested here as it will become hostile as soon as it spots you. You can just ignore it and quickly grab all the items in its nest and run away if you don't want to fight it.

Shortcut for Griffin's Nest in Misty Marshes

Overworld View

You can climb over the pile of rocks located by the path south of the Misty Marshes as a shortcut to the Griffin's Nest. Keep in mind that you will need to be at full HP as dropping down from the ledge to the nest area will cut your health in half.

Taking this shorter route lets you skip fighting through the undead roaming around the marshes.

Potential Money Farming Spots

Houses in Vernworth

The houses in the wealthy district of Vernworth are one of the best money farming spots due to the abundance of treasure chests and gold pouches which often amount to around 2,000G.
